During the coming months we'll be doing some things that remind us of Scouting's
past. We'll also try to show you that Scouting is big-worldwide, in fact.

More than 100 other countries have Scouting for their boys, too. A lot of
those countries in the Scouting brotherhood are very poor.

To help the Scouts of other countries, the Boy Scouts of America has the
World Friendship Fund. It supplies them with uniforms and equipment and
helps their leaders get training.
Next week, at our open house for parents, we will take up a collection for
the World Friendship Fund. Of course, you don't have to contribute if you
don't want to, but if you can spare a quarter it will help a brother Scout
in another country.
Remember that in the Scout Law we say, "A Scout is friendly ... He
is a brother to other Scouts."
